MARGARITA GONZALEZ, and others, Plaintiffs, v. CF WATSONVILLE WEST, LLC, and WATSONVILLE POST ACUTE CENTER, Defendants.
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY CASE SHOULD NOT BE REMANDED
NATHANAEL M. COUSINS UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On December 17, 2021, Defendants removed this case from Santa Cruz County Superior Court. ECF 1. Defendants allege that removal is timely under 28 U.S.C. § 1446(b). Defendants state that they “first received a copy of the complaint on September 30, 2021, ” and the attached summons indicates that they were served on November 9, 2021. ECF 1 at 2; ECF 1-1 at 2. Neither of these dates falls within § 1446(b)'s thirty day deadline. Accordingly, the Court ORDERS Defendants to show cause in writing why this case should not be remanded by January 4, 2022.
IT IS SO ORDERED. 1
